First trailer for ‘Buckout Road’ released
Having just started its festival run, Matthew Currie Holmes’ directorial debut, Buckout Road, just won its first film festival award: Best Thriller Feature Film at the Hot Springs Horror Film Festival; and to celebrate the first trailer for the film has been released!
Buckout Road might be known as the most haunted road in New York State, but nobody really believed it… until now. A college class project on modern mythology turns deadly when a trio of students discovers a series of horrific urban legends surrounding Buckout Road may actually be true. The deeper they dig into the road’s dark, mysterious history, the more dangerous their quest becomes. From witches burning at the stake, to backwoods albino killers, to a modern, unstoppable stalker, writer/director and horror-film aficionado Matthew Currie Holmes leaves no genre unexploited in his loving throwback to late-80’s midnight movies. Matthew Currie Holmes had this to say about horror: My favorite thing about the horror genre is that, at its core, horror is good, simple drama… but with way higher stakes.
This supernatural thriller, produced by John Gillespie & Brad Clark, stars Evan Ross (The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Lee Daniels’ Star ), Henry Czerny (Mission: Impossible, Quantico), Dominique Provost-Chalkley (Wynona Earp, Avengers: Age Of Ultron), Michelle Mylett (Antsocial, The Drownsman) Danny Glover (Lethal Weapon I-IV) and Colm Feore (House of Cards, Thor).
This award-winning film is also nominated for Best Picture and Best Director at the World Music and Independent Film Festival. And October screenings for Buckout Road will be held in Nashville, Tennessee on October 7th as part of the International Black Film Festival; and Toronto, Ontario on October 13th as part of Commffest 2017.
